CHAPTER 419: CHAPTER 419: NAME CHANGE

So, she genuinely admired this kind of girl in her heart.

This kind of girl is what she envies but can never become.

"From now on, I’ll consider you my younger sister," Rong Kuo patted the girl’s shoulder, "You can call me ’Bro’, just like Qingqing does."

The girl nodded, thought for a moment, and tentatively asked, "Can I change my name?"

In the future, their lives would intersect too much, sharing the same name would always be inconvenient.

"Besides being inconvenient due to us having the same name, it’s also my selfish wish to erase all shadows of my past, including my name," the girl said.

"What name do you want to change to?" Rong Qingqing asked curiously.

"How about Ning? The ’Ning’ of ’An Ning’ (peace). I hope for peace for the rest of my life, no more ups and downs, just to live this life quietly and smoothly. That’s my biggest wish now," the girl smiled and asked them, "What do you think of the name Rong Ning?"

As soon as Rong Qingqing asked, the girl blurted out this idea, which showed that she had indeed thought it through.

Only then did Rong Qingqing feel at ease, what she feared most was her retreating step by step for her.

"If that’s what you think, we support you," Rong Kuo nodded, "From now on, you’ll be my little sister, and Qingqing will be your elder sister. Let her take care of you a bit more. She might not have many other skills, but she’s great at fighting and arguing."

Rong Qingqing nodded repeatedly, "If anyone bullies you, whether they take action or not, just tell me. Once I step in, I can handle them without even lifting a finger!"

Rong Qingqing proudly recounted her heroic deeds after going to Shen Manor, but to care for the girl, she didn’t mention Shen Xingwei. The girl wanted a fresh start, probably to completely let go of Shen Xingwei, so neither Rong Qingqing nor Rong Kuo mentioned him.

The girl smiled, nodded, "From now on, you can call me Rong Ning, or Xiao Ning. From today, it’s a new beginning for me."

"I’ll call you Ningning, and I’m Qingqing, so it feels closer," Rong Qingqing said while hugging Rong Ning, "From now on, we’re good sisters, and your big sister will look after you!"

Rong Ning smiled quietly, her lips curving softly, without much sound, unlike Rong Qingqing, whose laughter could be lively and animated.

"Learn from her, that’s what a girl’s supposed to be like. Look at you, from childhood to now, not a trace of ladylike demeanor," Rong Kuo scolded Rong Qingqing, "Even I can’t beat you in a fight."

Rong Qingqing grinned at Rong Kuo and snorted.

The three were chatting and discussing matters in the hotel, leaving right on time.

By the time they arrived, Shen Jue was already seated, waiting.

With a blank face, his eyes ominously fixed on Rong Qingqing, making her feel guilty as if she had done something behind his back.

"Mr. Shen," Rong Kuo greeted, glancing at the clothes on Shen Jue, then turned back to look at Rong Qingqing.

He frowned. Was it a coincidence or intentional that these two were dressed alike?

"Did you two plan to dress like that today?" Rong Kuo asked.

Only then did Rong Qingqing notice that Shen Jue was dressed differently today, in a khaki trench coat paired with a grey sweater, which truly made her eyes light up.

"Shen Jue, I find that the way you’re dressed today makes you look especially young," Rong Qingqing sincerely complimented, "You don’t look like someone who’s almost thirty at all."
